If your in a Madrugar with an 80GJ Ion Cannon and find yourself being consistently killed by a Sica with a MLT 80GJ Railgun, you might be a scrub.

Lets ask a better question.

Is there anything that shouldn't be nerfed?

All the b!tching and whining,,nerf this , nerf that. Nerf team work, nerf the combat rifle , nerf tanks, nerf rail rifles, nerf heavies, nerf scouts, nerf AV. Holy sh!t NERF ALL THE B!TCHING AND WHINING. With all do respect of course.

Oh PLEASE nerf Damage Mods, RailGun saps would be NOTHING without DMG mods. Without mods my Missiles will wreck.

Sounds about right .

I keep saying thirty percent is just too much .

if you nerf rail dmg mods what is left to stop triple rep maddies?

Lost all cred points at this stage. And no I'm not going into the whole forum posts and do a "copy and paste" of all the forum topics that have gone over this issue time and over again. But they all end with the central idea that RR has the most benefits and least detrimental aspects over all other overlapping weapons without any detrimental functionality. And EVEN if it's a med-long range weapon there's nothing that prevents it from being used as an upclose auto shotgun with less power and spread.

This is the same issue that players in MAG had where it was possible to take a sniper and use it as a shotgun because nothing prevented you from doing so. That's the conceptually flawed problem with the railgun: superior power, range, armor and shield piercing with no drawback at any range point. At least with a shotgun you can technically mitigate its effects by running back an shooting causing a player to avoid running straight at you to shorten the gap. This is not by far the case with the railgun and should always have had something that causes either hip fire and shooting at up-close to be horribly inaccurate for it being a superior med to long rage weapon with its higher base and damage output.

And no it's not a whine BECAUSE THESE EFFIN FACKS HAVE BEEN POSTED MULTIPLE TIMES AND EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE HORRIBLE AT MATH TO ACCEPT IT And no I'm not going to do the homework for anyone who says anyone complaining about whiners on this topic are moronic because ITS BEEN POSTED SEVERAL TIMES DOZENS OVER!!!

If the railgun wasn't so overtly more powerful than other weapons then you'd see a greater combo of laser, assault and mass drivers out there but no you see shotguns, railguns and combat rifles as the main weapons that kill all infantry. This has been always as much as an issue as tripple hardeners on maddys and it gets whiteknighted so much that it's what ultimately hurts Dust.

God, if you're consistently getting soloed by a Sica there's no 'might' about it.

Tanks Were way more funner before the 1.8 update its was way funner more creative and way more balanced than 1.8 tanks

Because they have no drawbacks. They are excellent at any range. Coupled with damage mods (which should also be nerfed to 10%), they will 2-3 shot anything. The overheat mechanic never even comes to play, because everything dies before overheat.

The railgun is as unbalanced as if shotguns had no spread and had optimal ranges out to 100m.

Damage mods simply need to be nerfed and railguns need to have a range profile like the laser rifle. 100% from 200-300m, down to 50% at 100m and finally 30% at 50m. They are supposed to be ranged weapons, not CQC auto shotguns with highest DPS.

You know what CCP really should nerf? The forums, nerf the forums!
The place where all the "nerf this, nerf that" topics starts.

So what Im getting from this is that blaster tanks just want to be invulnerable to everything and play with zero risk at all
